"Bob O'Brien" has thoroughly embarrassed them and beaten them at their own game. Did you read how they tried to track him down when he first appeared? Turns out he led the morons to a strip club. The salivating led to tremendous angst. They have continued to try to tear "Bob" apart, not with ideas or concepts, but with personal attacks. Look at the post that precedes mine for more of the same. That Gary Weiss diatribe is even more of the same, similar to what you have seen. Personal attacks and assumptions when they have no facts. Does that stop them? No - there was no response to "Bob's" comments, just more personal attack. Look at the PLNI chart. Look at the action today. Look at where the bashers started their raving. I know very little about PLNI and don't profess to have answers. But I do know that this crew has scared away many who might have participated in more than a double. They have nothing other than assumptions. They have no facts. But this does not preclude them from posting something as a fact. This is how they operate. They get so upset when you publish posts about naked shorting or about scammy hedge funds or MM's abuses, that it makes you wonder what the vested interest is. In particular, the biggest hypocrites are the ones that advocate internet freedom and anonymity and, yet, go after their perceived enemies, such as "Bob O'Brien" because he has embarrassed them with content and ideas, not personal attacks. You'd think they would have learned. Those tactics worked back in the days of the now disgraced gurus and probably what led to, to a great degree, to the attitude that they are above of the law, as we saw during the great guru trial.
